All county records in PA were surveyed in the late 80's to early 90's (1992?) by the PA Historic & Museum Commission. That list is in the PA state archives, on the catalog / index shelf available to the public. Unfortunately it is a bit cryptic. There is no guide to assist in its intepretation. -----Original Message----- From: AnneTullar@aol.com <AnneTullar@aol.com> To: PALACKAW-L@rootsweb.com <PALACKAW-L@rootsweb.com> Date: Tuesday, July 10, 2001 12:14 AM Subject: Re: [PA-LAC] Votter registration >I've wondered about voting records, too, as well as miscellaneous records >such as business/professional licenses, nongovernmental organizations of >various kinds, lots of different kinds of things that citizens might have >registered for or been certified to do, etc. Does anybody know in detail >what all is held by the courthouse aside from the expected wills, deeds and >so on? > >I understand there is a survey of Lackawanna Co. records--unpublished, but on >microfilm--LDS or State Archives or Library: has anybody looked at this? >Anybody know about such stuff? > >The survey I refer to was done in the 1930's; a WPA project, I think. > >If this doesn't ring a bell, I will find the reference and give it to the >list. > >Thanks, Anne > > >==== PALACKAW Mailing List ==== >Have you visited some of the surrounding counties? http://www.rootsweb.com/~palackaw/#Surrounding_Counties >To unsubscribe: http://www.rootsweb.com/~palackaw/index.html#MailingList >
